I am also excited to see Bond and with the changes we've made interested to see all the WR's - Jeudy as a #3 or #4 is a much more exciting prospect than Jeudy as a #1 ...

Bond has definitely flashed before - if he takes a significant step forward then that's very promising news. From what I had read Boston was the stand out performer during mini-camp ... more so than KC. But he would typically be more of the Y ... So potentially you would have: X - Jeudy or KC. KC if he shows enough consistent ability to beat his man off the line and consistently catch, his pre-draft concern was drops. Y - Boston. Z - Bond seems like like the perfect fit and if he is in motion a lot during camp, this seems like it is his position to lose. . . . If Jeudy is motivated and returns to his best form - KC may take over at the Z. But I'd imagine Bond getting of opportunities as WR4.

Tillman has been okey - but really you would think nothing special. We'll definitely have 5 WR on the roster, not sure if we have a developmental talent worth taking up a 6th slot when Fannin is something of a hybrid, or just a very good receiving TE.

With as bad as the OL was last year - the new configuration whatever it ends up being almost has to be an improvement. Potentially a significant one, even if as a whole they perform up to a "below NFL average" level. That will have a positive impact on the QB play which, even though no-one is expecting it to be good, will help the WRs. Regardless of wins and losses it would feel nice ending the season feeling like we have a minimum of 3 bonafide starting caliber WR.

I could watch Mack and Byner 2.0. Or Csonka and Kiick.

I felt like Sampson showed very little inside the tackles as a runner. I view him strictly as a receiving back. Not sure if we have another true runner beyond Judkins


"First down inside the 10. A score here will put us in the Super Bowl. Jeudy is far to the left as Njoku settles into the slot. Tillman is flanked out wide to the right. Judkins and Ford are split in the backfield as Flacco takes the snap ... Here we go."

I don't remember him doing a ton thru the tackles - but I also don't remember him tripping over his own feet or simply running into the back of the blockers like we've seen with some of the below average RB's play for the Browns... Judging him vs Judkins and Chubb is a little unfair and I liked the shiftiness and speed he showed when there was a opening to bounce outside. I don't have an issue with him being the change of pace, pass catching option.
